Mair Davies appointed RPS director for Wales

Mair Davies has been appointed as the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's director for Wales.

Helen Gordon, RPS chief executive, said: "I am delighted to welcome Mair into the executive team of the RPS. Her commitment to developing pharmacy and supporting pharmacists in Wales is well known to us all. Mair has a rich and varied experience across pharmacy and education, and we now welcome her skills and passion into the role as Director for Wales."

As Ms Davies will be standing down as chair of the Welsh Pharmacy Board, Suzanne Scott Thomas will become acting chair until the Board elect a new chair at their next meeting on October 15.

Ms Davies said: "It has been an honour and a truly inspiring experience to serve as Chair of the WPB during the evolutionary journey of the RPS into a professional leadership body. I have had the privilege of working with dedicated elected national pharmacy board members, assembly members and RPS staff whose passion and dedication to our profession is commendable. I thank each and every one of them for their help, support and friendship over the last five years. I now move on to the role of director for Wales, where I look forward to working with the chair, the Society’s Welsh Pharmacy Board, staff members and key stakeholders to provide leadership for the profession in Wales.”

Ash Soni, RPS President, said: “Mair has been an extremely effective chair and contributed to the development of pharmacy in Wales. Her involvement across Great Britain has helped create the RPS as the organisation it is today. I look forward to her further support in developing the role of pharmacists in the increasingly complex health and care environment to providing the highest levels of care to the public. Mair will be a key individual in supporting the new chair in Wales in leading the profession and improving the public's health.”
